After the last couple of years anyone building homes, selling homes, loaning money for homes is probably ready to throw in the towel. The prices keep going down and lenders are in retreat. Getting a home loan seems to require an 800 FICO, 80% down, and an IQ over genius. Not to mention the fact that any speeding tickets in the last 10 years may count against you.
I am going out on a limb and proclaiming that 2009 is going to be a rocking year for all of us. All of us that put our noses to the grindstone, keep a positive attitude, work 18 hours a day, and basically end the year with no rear end left.
But we all have that type of work ethic in us and we can do it. 2009 is going to be the year that the history books write about. It will be the year that the Almost Depression turned into the Way Out. All of us, and some others. will turn ourselves into millionaires over the next few years. This is the year that we all get out. Some of us for the 2nd time, but we will do it again.
There will be loads of naysayers and detractors. There always are when you are trying to climb a mountain. But the mountain can be climbed. And when we get to the top, we can ask the detractors if they would like to know how we got up here.
Or then again, we can ask them if they would like to make $20 to mow our lawn.
